So my parents were kind enough to get me some very...VERY...nice knives for a late X-mas present. Thank you guys so much! I've been using them for cooking here and there and let me tell you these knives are *SHARP*. They've been going straight through everything I've used them for. It's really impressive. Maybe I'll do a video later to show you how redonkulously sharp these things are. Luxurious.

I was sort of worried this post was headed toward the emergency room. What kind of knives are they? I realized yesterday, as I was sawing through a piece of chick breast with my "good knife" it might be time to upgrade to something with a real blade.
Can't wait to see the video.
Shun knives. Check em out:

And the best part, there's a couple of videos about the knives on the site from...Alton 'Yes I'm obsessed with him' Brown. Yeep!

Ooo, something to put on Sandlin's Christmas list!
What kinds of things are you chopping up with that big blade? Is that what Alton would do? (WWAD)
Love you,
Mom
There's been a lot of different things, but last night I had to cut up some chicken breast before cooking it, a task I've done several times with different knives over the year. With these knives, it was like the chicken *wasn't even there*. It just went right through. That really impressed me.
I'm going to have to get a honing steel from Shun soon, they have a very specific angle on the edge, and the shun honing steel has that very angle on the hilt, so you make sure to sharpen your knives *just so*.
